Knowing the everpresent need for diversion during the adoption process, I’m going the scour the web to find odd facts, humor, and other things to get your day going as you leave the cafe. Here’s my submission for today:

Palms Casino Offers 6,000 Dollars Burger

(AHN) – A midnight craving for a hamburger could cost $6,000 if you’re staying at the Palms Casino. This pricey burger will now be offered as part of the hotel’s room service and coffee shop menu.

The burgers will come from food chain Carl’s Jr., which is a sister chain to Hardee’s restaurant. Since the franchise is not available inside the hotel, the franchise owner said the hotel bell hop will drive to Carl’s Jr. to fetch it when ordered.

Fortunately, anyone spending $6,000 on a burger is going to get more than a meat patty and two buns. The sandwich comes with a bottle of 24-year-old French Bordeaux. The burgers started selling on Tuesday.
